Federal Contracting and Cybersecurity - What Institutions of Higher Education Need to Know
Webinar | 03.03.16, 9:00 AM EST - 10:30 AM EST
Higher education institutions frequently act as government contractors, performing research and development under federal grants, cooperative agreements, and traditional contracts. Doing so opens up a wide range of opportunities for these institutions, but it also comes with complex regulatory requirements that can be difficult to manage. One area in which these challenges have become increasingly apparent is cybersecurity and privacy risk management. Doing business with the federal government means adopting a patchwork of cyber requirements that often vary across agencies and evolve over time. This webinar will help guide higher education institutions through this patchwork by providing an introduction into what some of those key agency requirements are and how higher education can get one step ahead of this ever-changing environment.
Key Topics Covered:
- DoD Contracts
- Classified Contracts
- Federally Funded R&D Centers
- Grants Case Study: HHS and NIH
- Cyber Risk Management

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
